i had a wicked hangover all day today...not a good idea to get intoxicated from cheap wine. usually hangover days are bad for me cuz i try to cure that awful feeling in my stomach by eating. it never helps and no matter how much or what i eat it doesn't go away. so today i decided to just feel the way i feel and not eat to help it, cuz it won't work. i have to keep reminding myself that food is not going to help me in any way except to cure my hunger....real hunger. whatever i'm feeling, physical or mental, cannot be changed by eating. food is not a magic drug, its just a means of giving us energy to live. i made it through today at just over 1600 cals. awesome....but i still feel a little hungover and i think i need to sleep it off. good night!

Hello there!! Well done on not eating on a hangover - for me the drinking is what opens the can of worms for me in terms of binging, the next day i always eat shit loads! So i have decided not to drink for a while. I am like you, i am 2 weeks down tomorrow without binging. I related to you on your profile when you said when you were younger people used to think it was funny how much you ate - they laughed mostly in my case because i was also so skinny because i did so much exercise. I am not below 150 yet about 156 but down from 165. My goal is to take it step by step until i get to 130 again. My next step is below 70kg (154lbs) then after that 150lbs.
Keep goign you are doing well!
